So both start at 0: It will blink 3 seconds later then again at 6 9 12 15 18 21 24 27 30 33 36 39 42 45 48 51 54 57 60 That's 20 times.

Now for the blues: 4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 40 44 48 52 56 60 That's 15 times.

The blink the at the same time at 0 12 24 36 48 and 60

Now here's the thing you should notice The Lowest common multiple of 3 an 4 is 12. So it is no accident that the lights blink every 12th second.

kari74 [83]
So each candy bar is .50 and they want to reach 455.00

we see how many .50's can go into 455.00

so if we multiply the 455  1's by 2 we get how many candy bars to sell or
